Well Hello my dear friend,

I want to thank you for the great show you gave yesterday night in PORTO. It was fantastic!!!

I´ve been waiting for a long time to get the oportunitty to see you playing live and, i dare to say, for sure, that was a good deal to wait. Thank you!

I´ve been a fan of your music for a long time, i have all your records (the first cd i ever get was Surfing with the allien because the LP i have was so waisted i could not hear it clear and beautifull as on cd, mainly "Always with me Always with you" that it is my favourite song.

Last thing to say, yesterday i brought my 13 year old daughter with me to the show. It was her "baptism" concerning Rock concerts. You won another fan!

Keep on rockin, and, once again, thank you very much for your concert and your music. I take the oportunity to congratulate you on the good musicians that accompany you on stage. Boy, they are very good.

Well the message is allready too long. I hope i can see you playing again soon in Portugal, and, who knows, get the chance to shake hands(he, he, he...). Once again THANK YOU!

Always with you

Hey Joe . . . Love you (-:

I dont think it really matters whether Joe is playing or miming in the videos he does . . . .

I mean we all know he can play so what does it matter?

Its all the other so called musicians ie The pussycat dolls and all that kinda pop trash that mime and are not really credible at all . . . I feel they are killing music with the image over talent thing . .It really irritates me when these acts get called musicians . . . how can u call someone who sings and dances to music not written by themselves and they get called musicians? They're just like puppets who cant do nuthin unless someone pulls their strings . . . The music is awful. Sure there is a performing side to it but i always thought that a musician is someone who writes their own music? Not having someone write it for them?

Hip hoppers and rappers who sample other's music just so they have a backing to rap over are called musicians???

Why cant they write their own music???

Because they cant!

They would rather steal someone else's . . Its not like its a cover version . . . just cheap!

If they took the time out to learn to play like Joe or just learn to play then i would think "Well give credit where credit's due, at least they wrote and perfomed it themselves. . .

We have a girlband in the UK called Girls aloud and they are advertising chocolate bars for goodness sake!

CHEAP ! ! ! ! Its more about sex than the music . .

Joe would u ever advertise a chocolate bar?

I seriously doubt it!!

There will alway be great music around . . I hope!

As long as we have Joe!

Sorry . rant over

Needed to get sumat out!

Cappy . . Computer game??? forgive me for sounding dumb! I know that Girls aloud will make a pretty penny from their ad but its such cringeworthy tv ad!!!

The fact that people think they're credible coz they've had lots of top ten hits? . . . . What about the Spice girls? A lifetime acheivement award for services to music?

THAT'S A JOKE!!!

Like most music critics and journalists . . THEY SUCK!!!

I remember reading in Mojo amgazine their top 50 guitarists . . . It was a joke . . . Joe wasnt even in the list, nor was Vai or Gilbert . . although there was some relevent choices like Robert Johnson . . . and other blues legends but it was otherwise crap and outta touch!

I've got a guitar book that has got Vai in it but totaly ommited Joe . . . GRRRRRRR ! ! ! !

He taught Steve!

Like Steve himself said If there is a time that he feels there is any kinda competiton between him and Joe he just simply says . .

"I just remember what he did for me"

Well said Mr Vai !

A question.

Has anyone got a comment about Joe's guest work on Ian Gillan's 2006 album 'Gillan's Inn'?
